Coinbase going after that pesky institutional market with some custodial offers.

Sounds like creating a bitcoin bank with 100% reserve. Is that really new?

Hum. Didn't dump all my clonecoins, but still made what could be considered a pretty penny on the ones I did.

If shitcoins pump then I can sell them later. And if not, then bitcoin is going to keep winning and clonecoins will be there as an insurance. Either way, the future is bright.

That said, something still feels off to me. If this was all that the biggest attack on bitcoin to date could do, then... well we will see what we will see.

What happened on the weekend was Wave 1. 

The BCH/BTC battle will play out over several more waves through the coming months.

Nope. But I assume the price of entry includes a bunch of assurances and backups that allows any deep pocket to pile in without the need to account for any type of security arrangements whatsoever, plus auditing and accounting for anything else they want or need.

That's a large barrier of entry dealt with there and then. I doubt most of the insane trillionaires could operate a Trezor.

Good to hear. I want the best bang for my remaining BCH to increase my BTC.

The BCH crew were very stupid to attempt to kill BTC while it's been on a pretty much unbroken months-long bull run, even more so with all the institutional talk swirling around.

Actually in light of all the institutional talk lately, their attack is starting to make more sense to me now. They knew that they had one final last ditch effort to win over some 'hearts and minds' to a BCH or 2X version of Bitcoin, before the CME group started firing up on 12/14 and trading BitcoinTM futures next year.

I don't think it worked, it looks like a massive fail to me. They have lost a lot of believers to their scam. And next year if BitcoinTM's price continues to climb, winning over even more new people and more institutional investors, then it will remain more profitable to mine.

What's your source for that?

How many forks?

Who is attacking bitcoin?

Is it coordinated?

Who wants bitcoin dead or replaced?

If none of this is true there is no source....

What is the pricing?
There is an initial setup fee of $100,000 USD, and a fee of 10 basis points per month on assets stored. Note that pricing is subject to change as we continue rolling out early access.

Easy money if you can get it i guess

Yeps. WuVer want to be in the good fellas club of Wallstreet and ROW subsidiaries. By hijacking BTC. Like all the new parvenues they desperately try to get in. But this club does not allow failure and has no mercy even for the club members, less so for would be 's. But yet, I also think they will not give up that fast.

The longer they leave it until the next attempt the more puerile they'll appear than they do already.

BCH will always be out there, but I don't know how much lead they have left in their pencil for a proper hijacking.

With people like Billionaire Novogratz in the wings, they would be better off trying to build organically little by little. Problem is it's not going to be as fast as BTC, so the BCH:BTC price is going to continue falling.

We're not trying to kill Bitcoin Segwit. We are merely building Bitcoin Cash to be all that it can be -- in order to take its rightful place as the dominant Satoshi derivative.

I'm sure we've had a fair share of fly by night pump n dumpers. But enough of us are playing a long game. Those of you thinking this is over may want to rethink.

We don't care, just don't spam/attack our Bitcoin and we're good.
